The rise to power of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) in 1949 was inexorably linked to ending China's humiliating legacy of bowing to imperialism. Seeking to liberate (jiefang) the country from its semi-colonial past, the CCP established diplomatic relations only with countries that renounced both imperialism and ties to the Guomindang (GMD), the former ruling Nationalist Party. In order to strengthen its “revolutionary diplomacy,” the CCP oriented its foreign policy towards the Soviet Union and openly accepted the Soviet Union's leadership of the socialist camp
